There is a saying in China that after visited JiuZhaiGou, you would not want to visit places with waterfalls and lakes. This natural reserve is indeed a paradise for people who enjoy seeing waterfalls and lakes. As for photography enthusiasts, this is the place that you should not miss.

Mount Siguniang

Reviewed By jiuzhaigou_tour - Jiuzhaigou County, China

Four girls mountain is famous for it's mountain climbing, there are 3 valleys in siguniang town, for normally people they chose to hike the Shuangqiao valley or Changping valley, it's take 4-5 hour hike enough in the park, not so difficult, case there is wooden path in the park, you can see some lakes snow mountain, you just spend one day in the park is enough., but if you like climbing, i recommend you chose Haizi vally and with local tour hiking to mountain, there are three options for mountain, frist peak second peak and third peak, all mountain are over 5000m , for the first and second peak it's very easy ti climb to the top, but for third peak it's hard. so if you have the chance to climb to the top, you can see totally different view. pretty petty pretty amazing!

Absolutely worth visiting! The only thing to remember - it closes at 17:00. You can find a driver to go there from Songpan near the bus station. This place is full of great views and positive energy!

Wolong Giant Panda Nature Reserve

Located at 6,500 feet in the verdant mountains of Sichuan Province, this reserve is one of the last strongholds of the giant panda

Reviewed By ellenjane10 - Niagara Falls, Canada

I travelled to the Wolong Giant Panda Research Centre by private car with a Chinese lady driver. It cost me about $200 Canadian and was well worth it. We visited both the Wolong Panda Centre and the Dujiangyan Panda Centre. I paid for my driver to accompany me inside the Centres and this proved to be wise as she used her phone to tell me details about the pandas and the parks. I had visited the Wolong Centre before the terrible earthquake of 2007. At that time the park was small and modest, but it had 16 one-year-old pandas!!! I was curious to see how much the park had changed. I was truly amazed by the development of large enclosures with lots of natural activities for the pandas to enjoy. The new Wolong Panda Centre nestled in the Wenqiao mountains is absolutely wonderful. At each enclosure, there are signs telling the visitor the names and ages of the pandas. If you can spare the time, Wolong is a must for the panda enthusiast.
